September 29, 2009The dialogue was really really cheesy. Or it was just handled really bad. There were moments where the actual film dragged me in. Mostly based of the way it was filmed, using the Pacific Northwest, it looked good. Thats two stars.
I think there was just something missing. Dont g...( read more) -
September 18, 2009One scene disapointed me and I'm not going to add a spoiler. I was not too sure about this film. But to be honest its the peacefulness, the romanticism of the occult, the acting is half decent but I think the directing , the Washington setting, and just plain vampire story make t...( read more)

August 3, 2009Although hardcore fans of Stephanie Meyer were a bit nonplussed, to say the least, over this movie adaptation of her bestselling vampire novel, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I can imagine that I'm going to take a lot of flak for my opinion, especially as "Twilight" is a movie meant pr...( read more)

Twilight the movie is cautious, a sort of Tiger Beat-ified Twin Peaks. In its undercooked way, though, it's enjoyable. full review

Mike McGranaghan, The Aisle Seat
It's a well-made but thematically flawed film based on a book that was ingenious in conceit but generically written. The strengths of one are the flaws of the other, and vice versa. full review
November 21, 2008
Robert Koehler, Christian Science Monitor
A hackneyed jumble of cuts and pastes from the book, blended with second-rate music video bits and third-rate visual effects, and finally undone by the fatal casting of Kristen Stewart as Bella. full review

Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
Not that Twilight's fate hangs on intelligibility. It hangs on fangs that aren't bared, and on a bloodlust that isn't indulged. full review

...It's a fleeting reminder of how much dumb fun is missing from this oddly neutered neo-horror movie, and how little is being offered in its place. In "Twilight," the only characters drained dry are ... full review

Twilight is, by its very nature, all about unfinished business, the story of a brooding, caring romantic hero and the woman who cannot -- although she wants to -- yield to him. Only his eyes penetrate... full review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
My advice: Focus on Pattinson and Stewart. They make you understand why the books sold 17 million copies. full review

Amy Biancolli, Houston Chronicle
Gothic wooziness stifles many of Hardwicke's lighter impulses, such as her knack for jiving humor in scenes among friends and family. And some of the more cartoonishly gymnastic CG stunts look plain s... full review

August 26, 2009I've read some of your coments and yes, SM created her own kind of 'vampires' (I agree with the coment below me), and it's good to create your own things. But I find these to be a little stupid, sorry I prefer the old-fashioned vampires, those who get in ashes when the sun shows up and don't sparkle. I mean LOVED the sparkling part, I had a really good laugh when he sparkled. "This is the skin of a murderer!" I laughed till the next scene.
For those who say 'This is the best mvoie I've ever seen' watch more movies, you'll see there are GREAT art pieces out there and Twilight is NOT a piece of art. Sorry. -
August 24, 2009Hate this movie. Hate it with a passion. I hated the first few seconds of it, and I can't stand the actors they picked. I don't mind Jasper...but everyone else doesn't work.
All their movie posters have these "I'm so sexy...watch this stupid movie." expressions on them.
This is the last movie I would recommend to anyone. I wouldn't even recommend it to my worst enemy.
Go ahead and give me crap for this comment, it's not gonna change my opinion. -
July 23, 2009I read the book saw the movie and frankly dude it sucked so not worth obsessing over at all! This is just a movie made to get people not to appriciate the an acual vampire movie like Interveiw with the Vampire or Lost Boys. Sorry to dissapoint when when you have a sparkly guy he's gay! Vampires are supposed to spontaniously burst into flames not sparkle! Yeah, I'm a twilight hater......deal with it!

July 9, 2009it was a really good movie, altough it didn't quite follow the book, there were some aspects that should have been explained in the movie and weren't.
But still i loved it and im looking forward to the next one ^^ -
June 29, 2009Vampires do NOT sparkle ..VAMPIRES DO NOT SPARKLE. With out a doubt the worst vampire movie ever, women should not be allowed to write vampire books

June 15, 2009I enjoyed this movie but:
I must admit i found the Bella character a little dull, i wish she had something more interesting to give...
And why the hell does she do all this "ive hurt my dad" crap. Why not just say, i'm off for the weekend, and go.... That really annoyed me!
And all these vampires are supposed to be so old, but act like typical teens!? -
